When I was in fifth grade, the PTA made a video — Keppel Breakers. It was all about breakdancing, and it is one of the best pieces of cinematography ever produced. At the beginning of the video, when the kids were asked, “so what do you like about breakdancing,” one little 2nd grader looked straight into the camera and after a moment’s thought replied, “it’s Awesumasauhhooonnneeee….” Since then, amongst my closest circle of friends and family, “AwesomeAsAOne” has been used to describe anything totally devoid of all that is not wholly awesome.

My name is Allegra. I like to spend time with my baby and my Bus-Stop Boy, sew up little pouches, figure out life at home, and celebrate awesome finds on etsy.
